    What would Disney parks be if guests got what they wanted?

    Depends on the type of guest. If it is the casual fan, probably not anything that would get me to the parks. If it was true Disney fans, then it could be amazing. The hard-core fans are so much more in touch with traditional Disney vision than the people in charge currently. They are less...

    Then vs. Now: Your observations

    Dang. I haven't been to WDW or Downtown Disney is years...protesting with my wallet. That is just sad.

    Will it Star Wars?

    Star Wars is dead to me. I have no interest in supporting the current "vision" of it, that includes paying to see it in the park.

    News New single-day ticket pricing will price all four parks at the same level

    I am going on a cruise in November (not Disney) and we decided to add a few extra days to the trip. In the past, WDW would have gotten my money. The value just isn't there, the quality just isn't there, the magic is gone. The way the parks are being run is not something that I want to support...

    A Spirited 15 Rounds ...

    Doesn't matter. Won't pay to see 9 or 10...or the next few stand alones unless Disney proves that they can right the ship. Get away from identity politics, honor the Star Wars history...just tell good stories consistent with the existing universe.

    News Disney removing plastic straws and more by mid-2019

    While I do support taking better care of the environment, the problem is that it feels like they are just virtue signaling and forcing that upon guests. I use maybe 2 straws a week? I don't believe vague/unsubstantiated numbers anyway and don't believe that this is anything more than...

    Complained About New Parking Fees

    Disney was my favorite place to visit. But enough was enough. Went from 2 stays a year to no visits in the last few years. It isn't that I can't afford it, I just didn't find the value in the resort and did not like the direction the company was going. I still check in here to stay in...

    Thoughts from my recent visit to the World

    Yeah, this is the biggest problem. We haven't been in three years because the overcrowding just makes it less enjoyable. I still find value in the WDW as a whole. Less than there used to be, but comparatively speaking, it's not a bad value. I love Orlando and would gladly go every year. But...

    Rumor - Possible ticket price increases coming this Sunday (2/28)

    Sure they have done things. Hiked prices, made lines longer, removed attractions, removed shows, made way for more strollers, alienated their cast members, cut hours..... My family loved WDW. It was our annual vacation. But things have changed and not for the better. We haven't been in the...

    Branching out! Not stepping down! NCL rocked our socks!

    We did the Getaway in October with our 9 yr old daughter. She absolutely loved the kids program. The younger kids seemed to have fun too, but I can't tell you first hand on that one. But overall NCL seemed to put a lot of effort into their kids program.

    Trending blog post: "What it's really like working at Walt Disney World"

    Some things should be taken with a grain of salt. That was one of them. The guy had an I phone and bought another. We don't know how he lived or what choices he made with his money. If you know you are making peanuts then it is important to make good decisions with your money or you end up...

    Trending blog post: "What it's really like working at Walt Disney World"

    A job is a job. Wages and hours, to be expected. That is a part of life. Though many employers would do well to learn you get what you pay for. But I disagree with the management part. Managers can go a long ways in employee satisfaction. Making employees feel like what they do matters...

    Trip Report Not the best experience 16-19 October 2014

    I don't like the FP+ system compared to the old way, but I wanted to correct you on this. We purchased our tickets through our base and received the vouchers. The vouchers have a serial number on the back that you can link through the Disney website and gain access to the FP+ system before...
